I share with you how to learn flips faster and better so you don't make the same mistakes I did! During my journey learning flips and tricks I had many struggles. I could be so much better off if it wasn't for these 5 mistakes I learned the hard way!

  • Advice to my younger self 1. Find somewhere soft to land on, it doesn't make you less of a man 2. DON'T psych yourself up all the time, relax and put power where it should be 3. Don't get stuck on something you can't do. Move on, come back to it 4. Learn variations before just trying to move on to the next rotation

  • My rules: 1. Don't do anything you aren't sure you can do. 2. When you do it, stay calm and think of the movement. Drill it while on ground if it's necessary. 3. If you're sure you can do it, why not? 4. STAY AWAY from any sort of pressure. Social, yourself, it doesn't matter. Your actions have to be deliberate, calm and from your will alone. 5. Don't be an idiot. Brute force is never enough. If you can jump you can flip. Just know the technique and drill it until it's ingrained.

    • There are three options: 1. Just fucking send it 2. Accidentally fucking send it 3. Gradually build up to the flip you're trying to do, e.g. start by doing it onto tons of mats, slowly reduce the number of mats until there aren't any mats left

  • Noob here. #2 is so true for me. I spent a year way too scared to do a standing back tuck on ground. Too scared to even do it into a foam pit. Then I bought a trampoline and after a week I've been attempting on ground (with some pillows) multiple times with no fear or hesitation. One more week and I should have it. I love your videos, keep it up!!!
